Today, Discord has unveiled several new features that make it easier and ever more alluring to use Discord.
Discord is now easing that “fish out of water” feeling with several new features. Maybe you’re in a server waiting to chat with your friends, but one person has simply wandered off. Instead of trying to start a full-on game of Jackbox to pass the time while someone takes only five minutes—they swear!—to go to the bathroom or put a kid back to bed, you can start an activity like a game or a short piece of entertainment within the Discord experience.
Today, you can look for a rocket ship in the voice channel to launch two new activities, Putt Party and Watch Together. If you’re a Nitro subscriber, you can also play Poker Night, Sketch Heads, Chess, Land-io, or Letter League; you can even invite non-Nitro friends to join you. One of the best parts of Discord is the ability to customize your experience to your heart’s content . “It’s not just a generic chat app,” said Rick Ling, Discord’s group product director. “Hyper-customization makes people feel at home.”
The only problem is figuring out how to do all that customization. To help, Discord today launched a native app directory,. It allows server admins to browse and discover new apps to add to their servers, like a translation app or a Netflix app to show your voice channel what you're playing on your television while you wait for your friend to finish making her stupid cup of tea.
If you’ve had the same running group chat in Apple Messages since 2017, it may be hard to convince you to switch your chat to Discord. Custom emoji and apps—and the ability to get more of them—might seem like trivial features that fall short of making the hassle of switching feel worthwhile. But look around your living room at the homemade quilts, warm lights, and checkers sets under your living room table.
